Transform Internal Audit with TeamMate+

As Internal Audit moves toward assuming a larger leadership position within organizations
as a relevant, engaged partner, TeamMate+ can help by driving value throughout the three
lines of defense on a departmental, divisional or organization-wide level. We do this by
focusing on our core principles—visibility, consistency and efficiency.
4 TeamMate+ | The future of audit technology

Visibility Across the Audit Team and the Three

Lines of Defense
We built TeamMate+ around the concept of visibility both at the departmental and
organizational level. At the department level, dashboards provide status updates for your
audit assignments and helps you manage daily activity, linking it all back to the overall
audit plan. As you drill deeper through the application, you’ll find more detailed and
granular dashboards for a more complete picture. Department leaders have instant access
to the critical information they need to manage their teams including: ongoing audit work,
tracked issues, staff availability, assignments, and more.

At the organizational level, TeamMate+ enables different assurance providers to

work together to see what other risk groups are doing as well as provides visibility
into departments outside of Internal Audit. This interconnectedness throughout the
organization inspires collaboration between previously disparate audit, risk management
and compliance processes and accelerates an organization’s success in identifying and
managing potential risk.

Other ways TeamMate+ enhances your enterprise-wide visibility include:

• Secondary Dimensions. There’s more three lines of defense. Populated with

than one way to look at your organization, 20,000 audit procedures and 1,000 best

scoring flows across each dimension
and any adjustments are made to all
of the dimensions simultaneously.
When working with multiple assurance
providers, any dimension could be a
starting point for their assessments.
• TeamStore content. Our TeamStore

by seamlessly sharing data for audit
programs and risk controls across your
• Historical Insights. Gain visibility into the
work completed and issues identified by
other assurance providers. TeamMate+
provides a view into the history of your
organization’s risk status.

Consistency Throughout Your Workflow

TeamMate+ was built with consistency in mind—a streamlined user interface, work
patterns and data flow all work together to close the knowledge gap between your audit
team and deliver meaningful reporting to stakeholders. Implementing systematic and
work flow-driven audit processes helps your organization derive more value from the
audit process by eliminating errors and inconsistencies with standard data collection and
reporting methods.

Configured to work the way you do, TeamMate+ helps you meet your audit process
requirements and enforces your audit methodology with market-leading functionality,
including:

• Project Phase Workflow Options. Select

the number of phases for your audit
workflow and configure TeamMate+ to
determine when each phase is in effect.
This unique feature enables you to
perform follow up audit activities even
after the audit is complete.
• Configurable Audit Reports. TeamMate+
allows you to set up your departmental
standards to ensure reports are generated
in a consistent format for easy readability.
